हेमा और सांझा चूल्हा... (Hema and the Sanjha Chulha...)

विशेष नोट : अगर आप जवाब ढूंढ लेते हैं तो ठीक, वरना कमेंट लिख दीजिएगा, मैं जवाब आपको मेल के जरिये भेज दूंगा...

हेमा की रसोई में एलपीजी (गैस) का सिलेंडर खत्म हो गया, सो, उसने पड़ोस में बने एक सांझा चूल्हा पर जाकर खाना पका लिया, जिसमें ईंधन के रूप में लकड़ी के कुंदों का इस्तेमाल किया जाता है...

हेमा के अलावा उस दिन वहां दो और औरतें मौजूद थीं, प्रेमा और सीमा...

उस दिन तीनों औरतों का भोजन तैयार करने के लिए कुल आठ कुंदे खर्च हुए, जिनमें से पांच कुंदे प्रेमा ने डाले, और तीन कुंदे सीमा ने, और हेमा के पास कोई कुंदा था ही नहीं...

भोजन का काम खत्म हो जाने के बाद हेमा ने प्रेमा और सीमा को कुल 80 रुपये दिए, जिसे उन दोनों ने आपस में बांट लेना था...

अब आप लोग बताइए, प्रेमा और सीमा को 80 रुपये का बंटवारा किस तरह करना चाहिए...?

Now, the same riddle in English...

Special Note: If you succeed in solving this one, well and good; but in case, you don't, just leave a comment, and I will mail the answer to you...

The LPG (cooking gas) cylinder ran out of gas at Hema's kitchen, so, she went to a Sanjha Chulha (contributory kitchen) and cooked the food...

The wooden blocks are used as fuel in that Sanjha Chulha...

That day, two other ladies Prema and Seema were there, using the Sanjha Chulha...

To cook the food for all three of them, th Chulha consumed eight wooden blocks, out of which five were brought by Prema, and three by Seema, and obviously Hema did not have any...

After the food was cooked, Hema paid them Rupees 80, as her share, which was to be divided between Prema and Seema...

Now, you guys tell me, what should be the share of Prema and Seema respectively...?
